Connolly is considered Britain's greatest living comedian. Revered across the globe, he has broken box office records in the UK and New Zealand. He currently holds the record for most performances at the Sydney Opera House, while his recent tour of Scotland sold out in minutes. Connolly was recently immortalized on the Avenue of the Stars, the UK version of the Hollywood Walk of Fame, alongside Sir Laurence Olivier, John Cleese, and The Rolling Stones.

You may recognize his face from the popular 1980's sitcom Head of the Class, his co-starring role opposite Dame Judi Dench in the prestigious art film Mrs. Brown, or for his part in the hit documentary The Aristocrats.
